About Raoul II 'Ralph' or Rainard de Woevre, Seigneur de Woëvre, Count of Bar-sur-Seine

CURATOR's NOTE: Raoul's parentage and the name of his wife are not known, according to Charles Cawley in Medlands. French Wikipedia regarding the counts of Bar-sur-Seine implies that he was the son of Réginald de Woëvre, although references are lacking and the dates given are inconsistent. Histoire de la ville et de l'ancien comté de Bar-sur-Seine by Lucien Coutant (1854)

I will leave that relationship on the tree, but please know that it is undocumented here at this time.

a) RAINARD . The Chronicle of St Bénigne de Dijon names "miles Rodulfus…de Barrensi castro…et filius ipsius Rainardus"[170]. same person as…? RAINARD (-after [997]). Comte [de Bar-sur-Seine]. "Milo comes…Raynardus comes…" witnessed the charter dated to [992] under which “Umbertus…et mee conjugis…Giberge” donated property "in villa…Curtis-Secreta…in comitatu Tornodorense" to Saint-Michel de Tonnerre[171]. Ernest Petit suggests this co-identity, pointing out that Coussegré was situated in the domaine of Chaource, which in part was a dependency of the county of Bar-sur-Seine[172]. There appears to be no other evidence of the existence of Rainard, son of Raoul, and Bouchard points out that the dating of the charter in question is uncertain[173]. She suggests that it is more likely that "Rainardus comes" was either Rainard Comte de Sens or Rainard Comte de Tonnerre, the son of Ermengardis. However, the latter suggestion appears incorrect as "Miles comes", who would have been the father of Rainard Comte de Tonnerre, is also named in the [992] charter. "…Raynardi comitis…Milonis comitis…" subscribed a charter dated to [997] which deals with the property at Coussegré[174]. m ---. The name of Rainard’s wife is not known.
